Re: Classic Car Mechanic / Garage
Has it got a 727 torque flight gearbox 3 speed & what carb?
Hubs (the expert now dictating what I type!!!), thinks that your 383 is in defo the 6. 3L V8. Take it its the mopar engine??? You can apparently check the VIN no with the Chrysler database ..... will pump hubs for more info ..... he's just walked (stumbled) in with few sherberts inside him - will come back tmrw eve with more info if required .... lol
Ours btw is a measly 5.7 V8 .... goes lovely tho ....

Hubs in his past had a 1969 Ford Zepher Mk II with a 383 engine taken from a Jensen Interceptor that did 12 secs on the track ........ hmmmm he's lost me now
Ours is blue, yours is older and black ..... I fear yours may cost a little more love and dosh to bring into the 21st C ....... but again, good luck & keep us posted!!

Only had it a day and i'm no expert! The cylinder heads are green if that helps? Not sure about the torque but yes has a 3 speed!
Interceptor's a beautiful looking car!
I'll keep you posted!

Hehehe it was an interceptor engine in a Zepher chassis .... before my time to be honest ...... bless his car headed lordshipness.
Not too sure about the the green heads ...... get yourself a decent specialiist
If all else fails, bring it here to hubs, he'll know what to do with it
